About This Home
As of July 2020WELCOME HOME! Pack your bags and move right into 705 Mockingbird Lane, located in sought-after Methacton School District. Upgrades galore in this 5 bedroom, 2.5 bath Colonial home. The entire home interior has been professionally painted in neutral colors. Custom-made doors have been installed throughout the entire home with brushed nickle, curved handles. Both the hall bath & the master bath have been gutted and redone in cool gray colors. A 9 x 13 concrete front porch gives plenty of space for sitting and relaxing. The front door opens onto a spacious foyer with new light, conveniently located coat closet, and neutral tiles that stretch into the gourmet kitchen. Plenty of light streams in through the triple front windows of the living room. Next comes the formal dining room which leads into the remodeled kitchen with granite counter-tops, an island with granite counter-top and cabinets for storage underneath, stainless steel appliances, quarry tile flooring, window over the kitchen sink and in the eating area. Plenty of room for family and friends to spill over into the sunken Family Room with new carpeting and sliders that open onto a patio and deep back yard. The powder room and laundry rooms are located in this part of the home plus the oversized, attached garage that has lots of room for lawn mower and tools. The second floor has a great layout with the Master Bedroom to the left and the four other bedrooms off to the right. Lots of space in the Master Bedroom with features that include two separate closets (with new doors), a vanity/dressing area and a dramatic, totally new bathroom with glass-door shower and designer wall of tile, a new vanity, spigots, mirror, lighting, commode and coordinating tile flooring. Equally dramatic is the new hall bath with designer tile in tub, coordinating tile on floor, new vanity, spigots, mirror and lighting. Even the linen closet has a new, custom made door! Each of the four remaining, spacious bedrooms has great closet space (and all new closet doors). The basement floor has been painted and the basement has had a waterproofing system installed. Tons of extra space in the basement is just waiting for your special ideas...maybe a family room, playroom or extra storage.
